June, 1968
1968 COMMENCEMENT - - AN END AND A BEGINNING FOR MANY
SENIORS AND
DR. SIMMONS
ARE HONORED
Commencement 1968 was full of
many events of significance to the
102 seniors in the formal ceremonies,
May 27, on the front lawn, as well
as to President L.R. Simmons,
whose 10th anniversary as president
of California Baptist College was
celebrated twice on May 24.
Then Dewey H. Jones was formally installed as dean, after having
served as acting dean for two years,
and honorary degrees were awarded
two outstanding Baptists of California, Ralph Edmond Longshore and
Richard Kay, both of Fresno.
The Class of 1968 presented an
interesting chapel program on Wednesday. In turn, they were challenged by the Hon. Brooks Hays,
Special Assistant to President Lyndon B. Johnson. His subject was
"The Complete and Generous Education," the basis for which he used
a quotation from John Milton and
ended by making a plea for understanding and brotherhood in the
framework of the Christian ethic.
The Rev. Mr. Longshore delivered

check for $500 from the estate of
their son who was killed in Vietnam.
Suitable recognition of this memorial
gift will be arranged.

$100 came from Clifton Eugene
White, (ex '67) for college athletics
and this has been applied to expenses for the trip that the Lancers
Basketball Team will make in December to Hawaii. White was active
in athletics at CBC and continues
his interest in this substantial way.
